And smalishah's avatar is the most classy one by far Jan certainly echoes the sentiments of CW

Yeah we don't crap in the first world; most of us would actually have no idea what that was emanating from Ajmal's backside. Why isn't it roses and rainbows like what happens here? PEWS's retort to Ganeshran on Daemon's picture depicting Ajmal's excreta

155 vs Australia. The way he tore into Warne that day was a sight to behold. One of the many examples of him taking on the opposition at a time when the game was hanging in the balance. It was one of the first games I ever saw live at a stadium. There was one six he hit off Warne that I'll always remember. Warne bowled it way outside leg stump and I thought he's just going to pad this one away.... It seemed Tendulkar was about to do that but then halfway through he seemed to change his mind and thought "**** that, I'm smashing this" and clobbered it for six miles over mid wicket. I was just awestruck

Favorite in ODIs:
98 vs Pakistan in the world cup. No bigger match for us than a WC match against the neighbours. In terms of pure adrenalin, no innings by anyone ever has come close to this for me. Every single boundary was struck so supremely it amazes me even today. Difficult to pick one, but I think this backfoot punch off Akram may be the single most perfect shot I've ever seen

This one is my favorite ODI innings.. Though he didn't get a century or 50 but it looked as if its a flat wicket when he was batting although the ball was moving around a lot on a spicy pitch. Once he got out, the rest were just looking for cover from the WI fast bowlers. Just take a look at the strike rates as well, out of all the top 7 batsmen, Sachin's strike rate was 102, the rest couldn't even cross 40.
